Abstract
An apparatus including a MOSFET circuit having dual threshold voltage NMOS and PMOS transistors wherein the threshold voltage of a low threshold NMOS transistor is set with a first halo implant, a threshold voltage of a high threshold voltage PMOS transistor is set with a second halo implant, and, a threshold voltage of a high threshold voltage NMOS transistor is enhanced while, a threshold voltage of a low threshold voltage PMOS transistor is compensated with a third halo implant.
